Chapter 392: Dad's Comrades-in-Arms Gathering
The boiled duck flew.
A fat duck that had been boiled in boiling water until it was seven ripe flew up from the pot, shook the top of the pot a few times, shook off the excess water inside and outside its body, and then continued to fly to the side, and then flew to the sky above a porcelain plate.
As Shenfeng, Earth Duck Smasher, and Shadowless slashed, a whole Earth Duck turned into a neat piece of meat in just a few seconds, and then gently landed on the plate.
The oil in the pot has been boiled, and the lemon that has been pickled for many years and the sour scallion, sour ginger, and sour chili pepper that have been cut off are poured into the oil pan at once.
After the ingredients are stir-fried, the duck meat is also poured into the pan and stir-fried.
A few minutes later, a plate of fragrant peak lemon duck was served.
Through the kitchen window, Zhang Xu took a look at the prosperity of enjoying the warm winter sun in the yard, and sighed that this guy was quite leisurely.
When Gao Feng Lemon Duck was brought to the dining room by Zhang Xu's mother, Zhang Xu turned on the pressure cooker on the other side of the kitchen.
The pig's feet, which had been ripe, flew up from the pressure cooker, and after the bones were removed with a bone-flesh separation charm, the pork bones with a little meat flew out of the window and landed on the plate next to Wangcai.
Hearing the movement of the dinner plate, Wangcai, who was basking in the sun, immediately stood up and began to attack the bones.
The skin and meat of Huanjiang fragrant pig are more tender than those of ordinary pigs, so the simmering time is a little shorter. Moments later, the whole pig's foot was thinly sliced by Shenfeng, Duolianfa, and Shadowless.
After making a dipping sauce with sand ginger, sesame oil, balsamic vinegar, and cooking wine, this plate of white-cut pork knuckles was also brought to the table.
Different from cutting the meat into pieces like cutting duck and cutting the meat, cutting the whole pig's feet into thin slices with a sharp edge is a very challenging and meticulous operation, Zhang Xu dares to say that Snape has been left behind by him at this point. Zhang Xu admits that he is inferior to Snape in terms of penetration compared to the penetration of wood without a shadow, but in terms of fine operation, according to Dobby, who did not want to be named, Snape had to admit that he was inferior to Zhang Xu in this point after secretly scouring a basket of potatoes in the kitchen.
After the "ding" of the oven, Fleur, who had just prepared the foie gras, took out the baking tray, then put the grilled fish and ingredients on the plate, and after putting a separation spell on the grilled fish, brought the two plates of freshly prepared dishes to the restaurant.
There are many guests sitting in the living room next to the dining room, they are all old comrades-in-arms of Zhang Xu's father Zhang Tiandong, and the sound of them bragging together can be heard by Zhang Xu in the kitchen.
Today is the second day of 1997, Zhang Xu and Furong took advantage of the New Year's Day holiday to go home, and they happened to catch up with the gathering of Zhang Tiandong and several of their old comrades-in-arms.
Some of their comrades-in-arms who used to be from all over the world are still in service, and some have retired from the military to work in all walks of life. It just so happened that during this time, several people stayed in the same city because of business or private matters, and everyone was in the group when they went online, so let's just take this opportunity to get together.
Originally, they wanted to find a restaurant to have dinner, but later I don't know who proposed, or everyone should reminisce about the bittersweet and relive the army's big pot of rice.
As one of the landlords, Zhang Tiandong had the intention of showing off his son, so he took them to Zhang Xu's affordable villa and prepared to have a battlefield pot of rice in the garden.
Zhang Xu, who learned the news, almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, and while sighing that these middle-aged people could play, he planned to simply buy a box of compressed biscuits and boil a pot of boiled water, so that they could remember the bitterness enough.
However, when he saw that among his father's comrades-in-arms who came back to the party were Li Shenzhou, who taught him the transformation of Animagus, and Uncle Liu Leilei, who had destroyed a large number of Dementors with him in Britain not long ago, he was embarrassed to carry out the box of compressed biscuits.
During the conversation, Zhang Xu learned that Li Shenzhou came to the zoo here with the staff of the base to treat the giant pandas, and Liu Leilei was on vacation after returning to China after returning from the mission last month.
So Zhang Xu said that he had taken care of the meal.
So after Zhang Xu and Furong were busy, a meal composed of local flavors and French dishes was freshly baked.
At noon, everyone sat down at the table, looking at the sumptuous dishes on the table, everyone sighed that Lao Zhang had a good son and a good daughter-in-law.
At the dining table, Zhang Xu raised his wine glass and toasted Li Shenzhou: "I toast Teacher Li, thank you for teaching me." ”
Li Shenzhou said after clinking glasses with Zhang Xu and taking a sip: "You are talented, you can teach me that little thing, and you can understand it at one point, which is much better than your father." If the work does not go well in the future, you can consider coming to our base to work. ”
Everyone present knew what Li Shenzhou did, and they all made fun of him. And Zhang Xu on the side smiled on his face, and said in his heart that that kind of work was enough once.
After joking, one of the people present said to Zhang Xu: "Xiao Zhang, don't underestimate your Teacher Li. When he was on the front line, he turned into a rat and burrowed into the tunnel opposite, and after finding the arsenal, he used local materials to make a time bomb inside, and he could kill all the enemies in the tunnel alone. ”
"The heroes don't mention that they were brave back then." Li Shenzhou waved his hand modestly and said, but the proud expression on his face betrayed his heart.
Then the others talked about how he was almost captured in the pit by a hungry enemy and stewed in the soup.
Then Zhang Xu raised his glass and toasted Liu Leilei and said, "Uncle Liu, I will toast you again, thank you for reaching out last time." ”
"What, old squad leader, you went to England and saved him?" Zhang Tiandong asked his old squad leader suspiciously.
It's not a secret that a team went to the UK this time, but many details have not yet been circulated.
And Zhang Xu only told Furong about what happened that night, and he didn't have time to mention it to his parents.
Liu Leilei said to Zhang Tiandong: "It's nothing, it's just that one night your son was chased by a group of big-headed flies like his grandson, and when we received your son's distress signal, we rushed over to meet your son and swatted those big-headed flies to death." ”
The veterans, whether they are still in service or retired, know that everyone has a habit when discussing battles, that is, the simpler the task, the more bragging, because if you don't brag, you won't appear to be powerful, and the more difficult the task, the more understatement, so that you can appear comfortable in the face of difficulties.
So everyone asked the two parties about the situation at that time.
Next, Zhang Xu introduced the morphological characteristics and living habits of Dementors.
As a result, the topic of conversation at the dinner table became how to fight the Dementors, and due to the tricky nature of the Dementors, the discussion was very intense, and new plans were constantly thrown out and rejected.
After a while, Zhang Xu found that there was a person who had been sitting there frowning and thinking about something, and did not participate in the discussion of everyone.
"Uncle Nangong, what are you thinking?" Zhang Xu asked curiously.
Nangong Cao frowned and said, "I'm thinking, if this kind of dementor runs to our country, and then attacks ordinary people who can't see them, then how can our "Approaching Science" program get this thing over." ”
